1 Evaluating Structural Performance of Base/Subbase Materials at the Louisiana Accelerated Pavement Research Facility Zhong Wu, Ph.D., P.E. Louisiana Transportation Research Center 2007 Transportation Engineering Conference Baton Rouge, February 11-14, 2007
2 Outline Background Objectives Project Layout and Instrumentation Discussion of Results Conclusions
3 Background Blended Calcium Sulfate (BCS) material is by-product from hydrogen fluoride production used as base materials in Louisiana low-volume roads. When raw BCS materials is used, the major engineering concern water susceptibility A previous laboratory study at LTRC indicates that The water susceptibility of BCS materials can be improved by mixing with granulated ground furnace slag, flyash, cement and etc. In fact, 10% slag (by weight) stabilized minus 4 BCS materials showed significant improvement on both water susceptibility and strength However, field performance of stabilized BCS base materials is unknown
4 Background (contd..) In-place cement- or lime- treated soil subgrade normally 12 thick used in wet conditions of pavement construction in Louisiana The treated subgrade contains 4 to 10% cement or lime by volume considered as a working table in pavement design no structure value assigned However, Laboratory results indicated cement treated soils showed significantly higher modulus and strength than lime-treated soils Can cement-treated soil be considered as a subbase layer and provide certain structure value in a pavement design?
5 Objective To evaluate the structural performance of thin flexible pavements containing different chemically stabilized base and subbase materials under accelerated loading.

34 Conclusions The BCS/Slag base material performed significantly better than its counterpart material - BCS/Flyash, whereas BCS/flyash better than foam-asphalt base. The cement-treated subbase possessed higher load-induced structural capacity than the lime-treated subbase, in terms of higher resilient modulus, greater load carrying capability, and smaller permanent deformation. A heavier load would cause higher percent increase of vertical stresses on top of the subgrade than upper pavement layers. The M-E PDG software generally overestimated the rut depths developed in the three test sections of this study The proposed model, which relates flexible pavement rutting development to the in-situ surface deflection characteristics, has a potential to be directly utilized in a mechanisticempirical pavement design and analysis.
